II. A sample size of 49 students has a mean weight of 205 pounds with a standard deviation of 5.8 pounds. Find a 95% confidence interval for the weight population mean. Is there any statistical evidence that the weight population mean is less than 200 pounds (α = 1%)?

III. The following data represents the annual average salary ($) of a sample of nine Social Workers.

40,950

41,460
